Problems solved by technology

Strip optical waveguides, especially ridge optical waveguides, have aroused widespread interest because they can better confine light transmission. So far, in semiconductor materials (SiO 2 , InP, GaAs, etc.) The research on the ridge optical waveguide on the crystal material is relatively mature, and the ridge optical waveguide on the crystal material is relatively seldom, and the ridge optical waveguide is prepared on the KTP crystal by combining ion implantation and ion beam etching. research has not yet been reported

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a KTP rib optical waveguide by combining ion implantation with ion beam etching, and belongs to the technical field of preparation of photoelectronic devices. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: optically polishing the surface and two opposite end faces of a z-cut KTP crystal with the dimension of 10mm*10mm*1mm; cleaning samples by using acetone, deionized water and alcohol, and performing ion implantation to obtain a planar optical waveguide; coating a BP218 photoresist on the samples in a spinning mode, exposing a mask plate, and developing and hardening to form a bar-shaped mask of the photoresist; putting the samples into a target chamber of an ion beam etcher, vacuumizing to reach the pressure of 10<-4>Pa and performing ion beam etching; and cleaning the photoresist mask to prepare the rib optical waveguide. The prepared rib optical waveguide has the advantages of capacity of well keeping the nonlinear optical property of the KTP crystal, and potential application value in the preparation of optical switches and optical modulators and in other aspects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a KTP ridge optical waveguide by combining ion implantation and ion beam etching, and belongs to the technical field of optoelectronic device preparation. Background technique [0002] Optical waveguides are small and compact, and can easily realize effective modulation of light waves, which is the basis for manufacturing optoelectronic devices. Because nonlinear optical crystal materials have important application value in the transmission and modulation of optical signals, it is very important to prepare optical waveguides on nonlinear optical crystal materials. KTP crystal is an important nonlinear optical crystal. Its nonlinear optical coefficient is 20 to 30 times higher than that of KDP. It can achieve phase matching at room temperature and is insensitive to changes in temperature and angle. It is 0.35 It has good light transmission performance in the range of ~4.5 microns, excellent mechanical pro...
